The Douglas County Sheriff says Earlywine and Mitchell were arrested in October for mail theft.

In addition, Samantha Allen was arrested in September for striking a Plattsmouth Police officer. Allen, and Earlywine were accused of trying to pass a bad check at a Casey's convenience store.

Investigators say the stolen mail will be released to the U.S. Postal inspector who then will notify victims.

On Wednesday, the Douglas County Sheriff's office received a call of people stealing mail from porches near 168th and Camden. The suspect vehicle took-off as a deputy tried to make a stop, and the deputy was called-off from pursuing it.

Later, other deputies spotted the vehicle on Interstate 680. At one point the driver was headed the wrong-way on an on-ramp before Omaha Police were able to place a tire-deflation device in the vehicle's path and disable it.

Investigators found stolen checks in the vehicle, and mail which appeared to be thrown from the vehicle along Interstate 680 near the Mormon bridge.
